during this time you can negotiate with the owner to buy it from him and close (cash, subject-to etc)you can buy it at the trustee sale (cash)you can buy it from a REO listing, or a REO auction (auction.com)so there are two different "auctions" bake the cost of eviction into your bid if you know the property to be occupied, and consider a cash for keys offer to them before the eviction. 

I have a 3bd 1bath house, a large granny flat, and my 550 sq ft workspace.

Would you be comfortable with this plan if home values stayed flat and or went down? 

Hi everyone,Thank you for taking a look at this analysis.  I currently own a 4-unit that is successfully cash flowing, but this is my first stab at single family home investing.  This is a 4 Bedroom, 1 Full, 2 Half-Ba...

I list on MLS for a $79 flat fee through Beycome.com.

I would take an initially negative but increasing cash flow market over a positive but flat cash flow market every time because I am in the buy n hold for the longer term.Good luck

Has anyone used flat rate selling services such as Clever?

I would just ignore it. ya my initial reaction was BS  either someone flat out lying or they are teaching this at the tarek class's as a way to get your low balls seriously looked at. same thing as wholesalers who have a cash buyer partner when in fact they have no partner LOL.. its all just BS  

Military veteran RE lawyer (no specialty - it's a Bar thing) - here.Basic LLC formation is a flat rate, but will need to discuss if that's the right approach. 

It is a flat-roofed model and I want/need to replace the roof.
